Or maybe he shouldn't have used 100 pct of what's in the tank for the starting pitcher nearly every game this season? How many times this season could we have afforded to take out a starting pitcher an inning earlier to maybe save some stamina for the rest of the season. All I know is I've never seen a team with a double digit lead still pitch their starting pitcher basically the maximum amount of innings during their start. We have a very good, deep bullpen....but Ozzie seems intent on making sure he gets 7 innings out of his starter every night. Cmon Fathom, I got to agree with Jim here. Cmon you don't take guys out to save arms later. Fathom, our team has hit the brick wall. I do not think Cleveland is gonna win 70 percent of its games. Hopefully they get beat soon and drop 4-5 in a row. If Cleveland wins 7 of 10 or 8 of 10 the rest of the way, I guess we will blow what was a 15 game lead. I agree with Jim. The second guessing is ridiculous in some cases. I hope our guys are coming to the park with fire every day. I don't know how to gauge that. But if Mark, Jon and Fred suck now, it's not Oz's fault. If those 3 suck we probably are going to blow the division.

Geez fathom, I don't get the criticism of Oz. When AJ isn't hitting and Iguchi isn't hitting and Everett isn't hitting and we're playing Blum all the time, we are a horses*** lineup. The bottom line is it isn't Oz's fault that Mark, Jon and Freddie haven't been good of late. If they are not dominating and we're not catching the ball, we're going to lose with our s*** lineup.

Beating KC will mean nothingBeating KC will mean nothing --Beating KC will mean a lot. We need to win this division. Cleveland is ridiculously good right now. The start of tonight's game showed AGAIN how hot the Indians are. We are playing s*** baseball; we're not pitching. Damn why didn't Cora hold the runner the other night and why didn't Freddie beat the s*** Royals? We are toast right now. I wonder if we can turn it around and win the division.

8) This team won't go far with a manager who favors AAA ballplayers who shouldn't be near a major league stadium. I don't blame Oz, but I agree some of our subs are not major leaguers. We definitely gots some problems. Oh I wish Big Hurt never got hurt.

I would, but it's very hard to reassure anyone of this team right now. Best you could do is support them and hope for the best. Well said. Me thinks we are in trouble, deep trouble, simply because the Tribe refuses to start sucking. At least we're going to find out if this team has any balls. We've been beat up and our lineup has changed a lot because of injuries and we're not the team we once were. Can we suck it up and hold off the Tribe? If this lead dips to four games or five soon we are gonna hear the 69 Cubs talk over and over again. I think we have the balls to get our act together, but I'm not 100 percent positive anymore, Moronotti be damned.

I don't like ozuna either, so I'm screwed. I dislike em both.

Has Blum helped us win any games? He could have won tonight's game at the plate and didn't. He just hasn't done anything.

Blum had a chance to win some fans tonight and get the hit in extras to win it. He didn't. Don't like him.

Joey Cora giveth and Joey taketh away. Do third base coach's decisions even out thru the course of a season? I'm just wondering.

You said it Ritchie Allen. You are correct, sir. Hope we don't regret not winning last nite and tonite.

I wish i hadn't watched that game; I feel worse about our team after watching that game.

Dye ain't no star, either. Let's face it we're winning with mirrors. We're gonna be hanging on by a thread before this is over unless the Tribe starts sucking. I don't care if we won 7 in a row; we're not playing good ball. I'm most pissed at Freddie for not beating the Royals the other night. That was one we needed to put away and sweep, not give up a 2 run blast to Berroa. We are only gonna go as far as Fred, Mark, Jon, our bullpen and our defense take us. If Fred, Mark and Jon don't dominate we are fricked.

It's a long long season. That was one, horses*** game for our Sox. Good gosh we sucked! Please, pls, regroup White sox.

How we are 35 over .500 is beyond me. This is one, weird team. Hope we can win the next 2 cause Cleve is comin!

Cause we need to move runners.

We may be gawn.

Gload is a toad.

At least the Angels can bunt the ball. Unlike Jermaine's s*** ass try.

If we score 2 runs here, or one run we are a team of destiny. Cause we don't deserve to win this game. Nor do the Angels. Vladd scoring on a bunt after loafing on the 2B. Call him out, ump! The loaf.

Why is Hermy pitching? Why can't we score one run in the home half of the last 6 innings? What is wrong with this team??

This might be the worst loss of the season. This is ridiculous. He was also OUT.

He was OUT!

I don't like Blum; don't like Ozuna. Come back, Joe. I hate when closers come in situations like this. suck.

Uribe comes through again, but we get hosed. Great throw, but still a hose job against the Pale Hose.

Ridiculous; just put us out of our misery, Angels.
